Abstract:
Disclosed below are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for detecting particles, such as radiation or charged particles. One exemplary embodiment disclosed herein is particle detector comprising an optical fiber with a first end and second end opposite the first end. The optical fiber of this embodiment further comprises a doped region at the first end and a non-doped region adjacent to the doped region. The doped region of the optical fiber is configured to scintillate upon interaction with a target particle, thereby generating one or more photons that propagate through the optical fiber and to the second end. Embodiments of the disclosed technology can be used in a variety of applications, including associated particle imaging and cold neutron scattering.
Abstract:
An implanter provides two-dimensional scanning of a substrate relative to an implant beam so that the beam draws a raster of scan lines on the substrate. The beam current is measured at turnaround points off the substrate and the current value is used to control the subsequent fast scan speed so as to compensate for the effect of any variation in beam current on dose uniformity in the slow scan direction. The scanning may produce a raster of non-intersecting uniformly spaced parallel scan lines and the spacing between the lines is selected to ensure appropriate dose uniformity.
Abstract:
This ion source generates a ribbon-like ion beam whose dimension in the Y direction is larger than the dimension in the X direction. This ion source includes a plasma generating vessel having an ion extraction port extending in the Y direction, a plurality of cathodes arranged in a plurality of stages along the Y direction on one side in the X direction in the plasma generating vessel, a reflecting electrode arranged on the other side in the X direction in the plasma generating vessel opposite to the cathodes, and electromagnets for generating magnetic fields along the X direction in regions including the plurality of cathodes in the plasma generating vessel.
